About the Book

This book was written to inspire people to chase their dreams. Written by an Italian immigrant who came to this country as a child with only the clothes on his back, the book uses a combination of colorful stories from the author’s experiences in growing up as an immigrant in America and solid advice. The author shows you that it’s easy to be a success in life; that most people do things the hard way and then complain without ever stopping to consider if there’s an easy way out. Mr. Abate demonstrates the method of doing things The Easy Way rather than The Hard Way with wit and self-deprecating stories. This book will not only entertain the reader but help him or her to live a better life the easy way.
